I see google results for Steam forums default to weird languages all the time without being on a vpn and along side perfectly fine english default results (inculding often the same forum thread just in a different default language), so I’m more inclined to say there’s something about that part of the algorithm that’s just fucked.
Not on my built-in Google app. I do use a VPN on Opera, and Ecosia has a built-in ad blocker that works pretty well too, but I don’t do anything fancy to my Google other than YouTube Revanced.
Using a VPN? Usually that my reason
